I watched this movie recently. Of course one of the reasons why I watched the movie was this damning all standoff between multiplex owners and producers and/or directors.

I don’t know who was harassing whom, but one thing I’m pretty sure of is that the end users were bearing the brunt of their fight. The worst part was that our dear Govt. of India refused to intervene, citing some impertinent reason. What amazed me was that the same government feels most inclined and obliged to become part of every irrelevant discussion like say for example a temple/mosque/church etc. But not this. This is the great Indian politics. It is unparalleled by far.

Anyways, coming back to ‘Kal Kisne Dekha’. This was the first movie that was released this last weekend (20th and 21st June ’09). And like many other I and a select group of friends decided to give this movie a go as we didn’t have anything better to do. From the onset I was very apprehensive about how the movie would be, considering that I did not like the promos that were doing the rounds on almost every TV channel.

To be honest, I was not disappointed and this actually surprised me. First things first, the story line was nothing to brag about. It was about a guy from rural India (Punjab) who has dreams in his eyes. His dreams are not commonplace. Like other people and like other movies, he doesnot dream about making it big in life, instead he dreams about meeting his soul mate in the nearest town. And that is where he is headed. Lols, can you imagine heading to town to see if you can meet up with your soul mate.

Anyways the story line was predictable but watchable. Songs were pathetic and this actually added to the misery.

Overall Score:

4/10 – watch at your own risk :p
